Good Ribs, Bad Photos
The pastrami threat didn’t materialize as the corned beef wasn’t removed from the freezer in time to properly thaw. However, babyback ribs were available, and on the BS Keg by early afternoon. That was...

Loafing Around
This being Wednesday, I suppose I could do the blogger form of loafing and simply post a picture. Here’s one of me loafing around tonight. The loaf in question was the standard mix of one part ground...

A Fool and his Ham
Yesterday we had a Happy Easter Anniversary Birthday ham, brought to us by Bubba Ho-Keg at the lake. Dinner was a bit simpler than holiday meals past, but satisfying nonetheless. An offering of the...

Simple
Some nights demand dinner be simple, and since I don’t have an Easy Button, pork chops and trashbag potatoes were on the grill. The pork chops were doubly simple, as I dusted them with Simply Marvelous...

Learning to Loaf
Younger Daughter showed interest in learning to loaf last night. Meat loaf, that is… She actually stood around for most of the assembly process and may have actually learned something. Based on her...

Mission Accomplished
Last night I attended a banquet at one of the local upscale eateries and had something they called Apricot Pork. According to the menu, the apricot glaze was made with apricot, soy sauce, and ginger....

Nobody Sneezed
Improvise is what you do when you are too lazy to go to the store. BBQ spaghetti was supposed to return to the menu yesterday, but angel hair pasta just won’t cut it for that particular dish. Neither...

Playing with my Butt
What would Memorial Day weekend be without a low-and-slow pork cook of some sort? Couple that with a post title guaranteed to pull in the comment spam, and you have something that looks like this. I...

Secret Weapons
I’ve got a few secret weapons in the ongoing quest to put out superior pizzas on the grill. One of them is my dentist, another is a special sauce imported from the wilds of Wisconsin, and the third is...

Bits & Pieces
Bits of leftover pulled pork, veggies, cheese, and NoButz sauce… Pieces of a full pork loin, sprinkled with Simply Marvelous Spicy Apple rub and done to a turn… Bits and pieces of beans, bacon, onions,...

Before and After
Anyone else wondering how many racks of babyback ribs will fit on an 18″ WSM? How about this many? That’s nine full racks in case anyone was wondering, and using only one rib rack holder in the bottom...

Bison Meatloaf
Did I mention I bought a nice sampler pack of bison from a farm back in the midwest? If it isn’t obvious by now, I’ve been testing it out, and tonight was meatloaf. And a mighty fine one, as well. And...

Playing with my food
Food pictures, that is. Outdoor cooking happened this week, and there are pictures that should be cropped, twisted, and shared. Starting with a tri-tip roast intended for fajitas. Did someone say...

Party Time

Overcommitted
If there were one word to describe my life these days, it would be overcommitted. Doesn’t stop me from cooking, but it sure puts a crimp in writing and timely posting. Like this pizza from last Monday....

Cooking, yes…
Posting, not so much. Proof? Tilapia tacos from last week… Pork tenderloin from last night… The tenderloin deserves a few words. It was dusted with McCormick Grill Mates Worcestershire Pub Burger spice...

No Candles
Tomorrow is Younger Daughter’s birthday and due to other commitments, birthday dinner was cooked tonight. No candles were added to the tenderloin… This was a redux of pork. As in, it was the same...

Excuses for not posting
I got lots of them. Work, travel, broken stove (?), other commitments, high school sports, surgery for a broken finger, bad pictures (stay tuned), you name it. But that doesn’t mean I haven’t been...
